Priorities, before poker.

Did you know that before becoming a good poker player, some priorities are very important? Taking care of your health, eating well, practicing physical activity, is fundamental for a good performance at the tables. Maybe our problem in not being able to make the best decision is happening before turning on the computer. And this is pure truth. Think about it.

You're right, it's important to lead a healthy life and get enough sleep. I say it from experience. The best performance comes from the hand with an optimal mental and physical state in any area of ​​life, including poker

Sport is very important for the right decisions, all the famous poker players are involved in sports.

Strong body,mind and soul. :star:

sport was my life,now I have sufficient time to sports and working,poker is after that!

Spot on.

any bpdy's life should be balanced, anithing in eccess is bad

Yes, all of the famous players participate in the sport but what can I say about me about death which is just not enough time to do the work by day poker by night?

What about relationships with other people? Family, friends, SO, etc.

I don't know, I might be wrong, but playing hours and hours of poker leaves you with less time and chances to interact with people. Doesn't that affect your perfomance, and overall happiness, as well?

work, sports, and you self confidence.

Of course, if you have a problem in your life and you are worried about something, you can not play poker calmly.

Completely right there my friend

If you are not working on improving your game, then big biceps and vegetarianism will not help you

You have to reconcile one thing with the other.

I'm in the process of finding the proper balance between poker, and everything else in my life. Currently, raising my puppy is number one, which cuts into the amount I can grind.

Totally agree with you.

Physical fitness is very overrated and is something the other apes have to worry about a lot more than us humans.

Just don't get too fat and eat enough good food to make up for the bad and you're fit enough to be a brilliant poker grinder.

I agree! i like to think of poker players as athletes because there is plenty of scientific evidence that shows that physical fitness is the best way to improve mental performance. being physically fit wont help them to be better players, but it will help them play their best game more often and help them improve their ability to learn. if you want to be a good poker player, you should think of yourself as an athlete.

Perfect, it is always good to take care of our health, good nutrition is fundamental for a good functioning of the body, allied with a simple walk, makes a huge difference and separates us from other sedentary.

Often, players spend too much time playing, forgetting and ignoring possible household chores and worries, ignoring family values, ignoring their own rest and their own health. We must understand that even though poker should be our goal, there are other values. It is necessary to take breaks in the game, between sessions, and simply between poker marathons.
Beginning players and even, sometimes, professionals face in life with the characteristic life problems.
